CD Reviews

This tape made me love Shakespeare!!!
mom of two | 05/07/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I could never comprehend Shakespeare in highschool. As a homeschooler now of 4 children, I wanted to "enrich" my children's literary repertiore so I bought this tape for them. Well, I can't tell who likes it more the kids or myself. Jim Weiss is EXCELLENT in depicting the character voices and the dramatic nuances are an absolute riot. If the rating system allowed, I would have given it 10 stars!"
Great for me and the kids

"I never read Shakespeare, but wanted my children to experience him. I bought this tape thinking I would listen to it, and maybe my young kids (5 & 3) would like it in a few years. They LOVE it now. They actually ask for it over the Arthur and Disney tapes. How great is that!

Now I am buying one for my daughter's 1st grade teacher."
Great for Mom, but kids got lost

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I think it's a good review for parents, however, my 3.5 and 5.5 year old were quite lost with so many human characters and numerous "creature" characters that it made the story rather confusing and hard to follow. Also, the topics of romance, marriage, engagement, etc are still beyond them at this point. We have 4 other Jim Weiss Cds and we are throughly in love with them and play them often. This one might be better for them in a few years."
